SITTING BY AN ANGEL

I’m sitting by an Angel, and how happy that makes me.
In her loving embrace is where I’m meant to be.
The Angel is my mother, and I feel secure again.
The doorway to her heart is mine, and it's always been.

Seated by my Angel, I feel safe and secure;
loneliness replaced by a love that’s pure.
She smiles at me and tells me that I’m not alone;
that she’ll never leave me to struggle on my own.

I’m sitting by an Angel with tears in my eyes;
wishing we’d never had to say our goodbyes.
“Hold me closely forever”, I plead with my mother,
“for all we shared can never be replaced by another”.

Seated by my Angel, and wrapped snugly in her wings,
my head resting upon her shoulder as a lullabye she sings.
God blessed me with a miracle when He sent her to sit by me,
to tell me she’d be with me forever, that it was meant to be.
